Buffalo Mayor Declares Victory in Write-in Campaign Against AOC-Backed Democratic SocialistJoel B. Pollak 2 Nov 2021
Four-term Buffalo, New York, Mayor Byron Brown declared victory Tuesday evening in a stunning write-in campaign over a socialist, India Walton, who defeated him in the Democratic Party primary in June.
Local NBC affiliate WGRZ reported: “With 97 percent of the precincts reporting Tuesday night, write-in candidates have nearly 33,900 votes, or 59 percent. The results do not say who received those write-in votes, but Brown has waged an aggressive write-in campaign since he lost the Democratic Party primary back in June.”
Brown called his apparent victory, which would see him govern for a fifth term, “one of the greatest comeback stories in our history.”
In June, the Associated Press reported that Walton was “on track” to become the city’s next mayor — as well as the first socialist mayor and the first female mayor.
That did not sit well with traditional Democrats, some of whom were stunned into action by the primary.
